Wentworth on Rt 4 south of Prince Frederick. You might want to call first.

Thought about them but hoping to go cheaper since it's so late in the season.

There might be markdowns since it is so late in the season.
Any Amish road stands on your side of the bridge? Zimmermans and Green Acres still have them on this side of the bridge. I don't think they've lowered the price, but the prices are really good at regular price. And healthy. I've never had a plant die on me from them. Right now I just have germaniums that I picked up in the spring. They are still blooming like crazy and I don't do a damn thing to them. Had them in the past from both places, they've bloomed until October.

Very true. I have to go up that way later today and will stop and see.

I don't think so but I am close to the bridge. Is one of those the one right as you get off the bridge?
No I apologize...wasn't very clear. Both Zimmermans and Green Acres are located just a few miles shy of Leonardtown - it may be Loveville, not really positive. I know you keep pretty busy, but if you feel like relaxing and treating yourself; it's a short "day" trip and a really interesting place to poke around. Plenty of good spots to eat in Leonardtown as well.
Does Wentworths ever put anything on sale? I've been really disappointed in that place. Bought a few houseplants from them a year or two ago. Forty some bucks for two philodendrons in six-inch pots. Dead in a month and that is one plant I've always been successful in not killing. I could have bought both of them at the commissary for $18.00 easily.

Plan on stopping by there as well but driving past earlier, it didn't appear they had hanging plants. Will have to stop and look around. Went to Wentworth's and a lot of the hanging plants were half dead. Almost like they are letting them die to make room for the Fall flowers.

If you get as far as Mechanicsville, Forest Hall Farm has lots of hanging plants on discount.

Surprisingly, Chesapeake Bounty had nothing in general. No hanging plants and hardly any plants in general. I think I will just wait until the Fall flowers come out and get some early.

That’s a good idea. Summer annuals are going to be running their course soon if they haven’t already.
